The NSW holiday home of Peter and Divonne Holmes à Court has been listed for auction.

The oceanfront home at Stanwell Park features four bedrooms.

It’s located just under one hour from Sydney.

It comes with Luigi Roselli-designed and council-approved plans for extensive additions.

Due to spending more time in Europe, the Holmes à Court family have decided they won't build their dream beach house extension on the 1,568-square-metre Kallaroo Avenue site.

Divonne Holmes à Court says the small beach community reminds her of Nantucket.

“Our children will probably never forgive us [for selling]!”

Its McGrath Thirroul listing agent Amanda Moore expects $2.1 million plus when it is auctioned in conjunction with LJ Hooker Helensburgh.
